supply and demand, is, to say the least,
engaged in somewhat hazardous under
| taking. The coffee trade of the. world al
present believes that the next coffee crop,
that is the one beginning July l prOXimO,
will be g small one compared
with the yield Of the previous crop
There seems to be no reason for doubling
that the crop of the largest producing
country, Brazil, has been seriously in
| jured by unfavorable and somewhat alb
normal conditions of weather and small
| yield is the natural consequence. 1t is
also claimed that similar unfavorabIe
conditions are likely to affect the yield
of other countries, and accordingly the
J estimated supply that will become avail
able for the worlds consumption
| shows a considerable reduction compared
with the supply that has been marketed
during the crop year now drawing to q
close. Taking these estimates, however,
in connection with what is assumed to be
the quantity required for the worlds con-
sumption, it is found that if these calcu-
lations be correct, every available bag of
coffee in the world will have been con-
sumed before the expiration Of the crop
! year ending June 80, 1888; in other

round. The various estimates mat have
| been prepared by recognized authorities
in the trade DO not al give the same re-
suits, for there IS a wide difference be-
tween the opinions Of the bulls and the
bears, but all of them lead to result
that upon It's face is 50 improbable that
the puzziing question, SO difficult to de
! termine, is wherein they are in error.
/ Ono nf +hDCn Nv
European firm that IS admitted to be on
the bull side of the market, shows
prospective deficiency of 100000
bags, while another compiled with equal
care by an authority with bearish pro-
clivities, shows that at the close of the crop
year the available stock of the world will
amount TO 200, 900 bags. In view of the
fact that for the past five years the visible
supply has never st any time been below
k3, 500 600 bags, and generally above
100000 bags, this latter deduction is
quite as improbable as the first.
